- This place is so nice now! My girls love watching movies here and The matinees have less people so it’s the perfect time to go!Upvote8Downvote
- venessa tarbellNovember 17, 2011Cheapest seats in town. They run family movies, but not for as long as adult films so don't procrastinate! They also have a family movie festival in the summer: $1 movies on weekday mornings!Upvote5Downvote
- Tickets are always $6 before 6pm everyday. And since it's such a small theater, it's easy to take in a second movie.Upvote1Downvote

- JB ADecember 24, 2017It doesn't have the biggest selection of movies each week, but wonderful to have a neighborhood theater without all the craziness of a multiplex.UpvoteDownvote

- Time Out Chicago KidsJanuary 13, 2012Get your sugar fix without resorting to Skittles and Icees. It serves freshly-spun cotton candy ($3)--just like the carnival, but without the crowds, the sweat and the scam-artist games.Upvote2Downvote
- Lukas SuvegJune 15, 2013Usually, it's advantageous to seat yourself in the middle. Some of these screens are actually oriented at an angle, so you may want to opt for the side seats.UpvoteDownvote
- Ruben WhitakerMay 25, 2014They have some really cool artwork here so check it out. Sometimes the floors are really sticky and the bathroom stinks so watch out for both things.UpvoteDownvote
- My new fav seat in BEHIND the Red Snuggle Chair on the left because it has been broken for over a year and no one can sit in front of me :-DUpvote3Downvote
- Maria AlbertiAugust 11, 2014It's too creepy and dirty! How come that in a nice area like this it has to be a theatre so bad?by the other hand the screen and the sound are very good and those are important things.UpvoteDownvote
- Assigned seating now so you can hang in the bar right up until showtime.UpvoteDownvote
- David CurielNovember 29, 2014Sometimes you don't get the best views as the screens are on an angle but for a film you aren't certain about it will doUpvoteDownvote
- Andrew ScuttNovember 10, 2013Limited selections, but reasonably priced and typically not crowded in one of my favorite neighborhoods in the city.UpvoteDownvote
